California Children’s Services

The California Children Services (CCS) provides diagnostic and treatment services, medical case management, and physical and occupational therapy services to children and young adults under 21 years of age with CCS-eligible medical conditions.

CCS medical case management ensures children and youth receive care from approved specialists, have an established medical home, and help refer to other agencies such as Tri-Counties Regional Center.
